    LMAO the dude who was complaining about lack of bigs all season last year is now calling boars an overrated stat....holy crap haha. Well that's one dumb thing you've said.

    Okay? That happens? You are horrible talent evaluator, this is what I mean by you dont watch both sides of the ball. Defensively, PJ was great.

    Again....I have no idea why I should take you seriously at all?

    Yes he is and its one game where we are missing half our roster, you are out of your mind. You need another competent defender out there to be there on the floor with him which House is not.

    Silas would not have started him if PJ wasnt good enough, same with Gordon.

    Bro...compared to you, I am a savant, your knowledge is that little. You can't evaluate basketball.

    If you were someone who had respectable bball opinions most of the time, I would take it seriously. But your opinion just isnt matching up with whats happening on the floor.

    The truth is I see things way before most fans see them - PJ is/was a decent player in small ball - but we don't need 6'5" bigs, we need actual bigs...and he can't keep up with the younger players any longer.

    He is in decline - and I know his fans don't like it, but as a Rocket fan, I want more bang for the 10m buck.

    If you actually paid attention you might learn something.

    The Truth - you have no idea what you are talking about, and you are a young kid who grew up in the participation trophy era where you don't like criticism, even if it helps players achieve.

    It is ok, as you grow up you will learn.

    Tucker is aging. An extension of any significance could really be a mistake.

    BUT he has been one of our most impactful players the last few years.

    In terms of wins added it went Harden, Covington then Tucker last season. Tucker coming in at 68th overall in the entire NBA.

    Points to a player who is still REALLY impactful who outperformed his contract number.

    Clearly still underrated by some, but I do agree that an extension has some big risk attached to it.

    SHHHHH - it will all be over soon.

    Kids should keep their mouths shut and learn before talking or thinking they know anything about anything.

    PJ is quickly moving towards washed up. You will eventually see it.

    I’d give him a 3 year 25 mil extension

    only cuz he has held it down for last several years..

    A thank you for your hard work type deal.
    Structure it to be front loaded ( idk if that’s doable)

    something like

    10mil
    10 mil
    5 mil ( partial guaranteed)

    he won’t get more than that in free agency

    he as 2-3 years of good production but needs to come off the bench.

    that’s a steep price to pay for a bench player at his age tho..

    tough one for the stoner to maneuver

    Look junior - you started by saying I know nothing about the game - just attacking, and then when I fought back and called you out, you started whining that I should be ashamed, etc....

    If you can't take the heat, kid, stay the hell out of the kitchen.

    Or, you can try disagreeing respectfully with people and they will do the same, but if you are going to be a childish ******* - expect others to come back at you - because being an ass then whining about it when others call you an ass for being an ass is too much like Donald Trump another mental midget who can hit but can't take a punch.

    Now, if you want to talk basketball and realize that not everyone agrees with your take, or opinion - fine then go ahead - just be respectful, the sooner you realize that not everyone agrees and that is ok - and that we are all here because we are ROCKETS fans......the better off you will be and the better we both make Clutchfans.

    Lesson is over.....Truce?

    Go Rockets.....

    The only thing you can fault PJ for is that wagon he’s been dragging around for the last 3-4 years!!

    he is a glorified role player and often played out of position.

    he should retire a rocket honestly.

    Ah, 8m then, thank you for the correction - still too much, should be a vet minimum player, that is all he will get at this point in his career, he is just slowing down - and if you take away the stand in the corner, he doesn't offer much for a team other than a role playing hustle player.

    Man.....
    Tucker gave up money to come to Houston.
    He has been playing as a C for a lot of that time. Putting his body on the line. He's been part of our most successful teams in years.

    I don't think we should give him the bag.

    But after all he's done to criticize him after one game.
    You guys are ungrateful.
